Community Diversity and Integration: What does community and urban scholarship tell us about the past, present, and future of interaction across difference? What does our research suggest about the reproduction of inequality in “integrated” settings? As a corollary, does our identification of these inequality processes imply particular policies or interventions that may facilitate equity?
Interactional Processes: What are the key processes that generate inequality in groups according to major theoretical traditions in social psychology? What interventions would these theories suggest as likely to promote positive group dynamics? What do experimental methods and abstract formal theory bring to the table in generating potential solutions to social problems?
All Participants: Is there resonance between the social problems and/or solutions identified in research on communities and research on group dynamics? Can we come together on a set of recommendations for social intervention? What do we know, what don’t we know, and what do we need to know if we are to suggest effective interventions to reduce inequality in diverse settings?
